Electron | 6x HawkEye 360

Rocket Lab | USA
Wallops Island, Virginia, USA
TBD June, 2024
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:

HawkEye 360 is a a space-based civil global intelligence satellite network using radio frequency (RF) technology to help monitor transportation across air, land and sea and assist with emergencies, and to provide civil SIGINT (Signal Intelligence) mission. The constellation of small satellites (named Hawk ) will collect information on specific radio signals worldwide to provide high-precision radio frequency mapping and analytics from Low Earth orbit (LEO).

Electron | NZSA Venus Mission

Rocket Lab | USA
Onenui Station, Mahia Peninsula, New Zealand
TBD December, 2024
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:

NZSA Venus Mission is a small direct Venus entry probe with a single 1 kg low-mass, low-cost autofluorescing nephelometer riding on a satellite bus based on the Photon Upper stage of the Electron rocket. The probe mission will spend approximately 5 minutes in the Venus cloud layers, 48-60 km above the surface, collecting in situ measurements to search for organic molecules in cloud particles and constrain particle composition.
